  • The Semi-Soft opening

    And now introducing the site i have been working on. Its call boilerpl8.com.

  • Website Review: Technorati

    Why would we review a site which has the distinction of doubling its traffic in the last year? Well first off to claim this very blog on that site. Secondly I believe certain aspects of the site are useful and certain ones are definitely not. This post will be updated later with more content to […]

  • Xbox 360: Live Arcade: Ageis Wing

    First off let me say something about free games, by definition they don’t have to stand up to the same type of scrutiny as pay for play games. You don’t have to justify their acquisition. That being said the bar is also set quite low for titles, and content which comes gratis. So without the […]

However you usually […]

  • Early Morning Rage Building…

    I promised i wouldn’t say anything else about this damn phone on my Podcast, www.caffination.com, but that doesn’t stop me from bitching about it here. Alright I might be alone on this one but I am starting to get more than fed up with iPhone news. I read a lot of gadget and news sites […]

  • Movie Review: Pirates of the Caribbean 3

    What can you logically expect when you go to the movies, spend almost 10 dollars to see a sequel of a much beloved film? Well the marketing people would have you believe it is “better than the first two”. The actors will wax poetic about character development and influences. When all you really want to […]
